Way back in 2007, BerryReview gave its very first ‘Editors’ Choice’ Award to PocketDay. And I can see why. This program is SO comprehensive! Ever since I received it I have used it as my homescreen. With everything you could ever need (and a few you wouldn’t use that often). PocketDay offers the user such a varied array of features and an infinite way of setting them up that every user is bound to be catered for…

I have written an update with particular reference to the new features of PocketDay. For the full story, just refer back to the original review.

Won’t lessen your battery life (using certain backlight options may use a bit more battery)

Able to turn the Backlight on when you take the BB out of the holster

Able to turn the Backlight on when an Alarm sounds

Able to change the Reply-To address field when using the BlackBerry Web Client

Able to use PocketDay as your Standby screen

Create hotkeys for your favorite BB apps

Enable Backlight on Alarm – turns the backlight on whenever a sound based alarm goes off

Enable Backlight on Email Receipt (great for 7100 devices)

Calendar

1) Day, Week, Month Views

2) Day and Week Views can show integrated task information

3) Week view shows anywhere from 7 – 21 days of information

4) Show the 1st line of the events notes for each item

Tasks

1) Tasks can be shown in the calendar as well as a separate Task Only view

2) Sort by Priority, Due Date, Category, etc.

3) Show notes in-line

This list of features is updated for the new version and is indicative of the depth of this program. As there is a trial version available, you really don’t have anything to loose. (The Trial Version is a full 30 days so you can get a real feel for the product).
